Retired Veteran Politician Vernon Johnson Mwaanga has been summoned by the Police in Lusaka.
Four Police Officers in plain clothes from Lusaka District Criminal Investigation Division led by Senior Supt. Chiwala Choongo visited Mwaanga’s house in Olympia to deliver a call out.
“At 18 03 hrs this evening, 13th January, 2016, I was visited at my house No 6741 Akashambatwa Road, Olympia Extension by 4 police officers in plain clothes from the Zambia Police Service, Lusaka District Criminal Investigation Division, led by Senior Supt Chiwala Choongo, who brought a “call out” for me to report to the District Criminal Investigation Officer, tomorrow at 14 hrs for an “interview,” Mwaanga popularly known as VJ narrated. “I told them that tomorrow Thursday was not possible, but that I preferred Friday at 09 hrs, to give me time to find a lawyer or lawyers to escort me.”
He says the Police have agreed to “interview” him on Friday at 09:00 hours.
This week PF Supporter Bowman Lusambo reported Mwaanga to the Police over his statement that the opposition should be alert as the ruling party would rig the August 11 general elections.
Will not speculate. Mr. VJ might have a lot to say for our benefit.
The main point is that VJ in his excitement recently stated that previous elections have been subjected to manipulation at tallying centres. As we all know VJ was a major player in the MMD won elections and allegations used to fly around that he was involved in rigging the same elections. An allegation that he publicly denied at that time by stating that its impossible to rig elections in Zambia. There was an uproar in Malawi when information leaked that VJ would be visiting that country during elections since his name was somehow associated with rigging. Such careless talk is dangerous especially when it comes from a person of his standing. However we are now all interested to know how the rigging was done in the past and the Police are therefore right to question him.
Muliokela is trying his luck on Dora but he is late. Dora has recently been taken. He wants to eat from the same plate with Chagwa. Beware of Chagwa the tonne of bricks. Don’t even think about Mumbi Phiri otherwise the same tonne of bricks will fall on you. Try Jean Kapata.
Big tribe, VJ is right you know our party PF has gone to the dogs under the current ministration. Micheal Sata was a man of action for sure. VJ must have seen something coming. Look at kambwili he has
made a lot of useless remarks about of people of southern province but the president is quiet just imagine. politics is more like business where you need to use a persuasive language in order to win the majority or what services do have to provide in order for the for example the PF to remain in power? all these Kambwili doesn’t understand hey unfortunately!
VJ spoke of rigging because this is what he used to do, it is time that VJ explains what they used to do in MMD. Careless talking from the so called states man can cause conflicts after election results. VJ is not wise, people who are wise do not divulge secrets once they leave the system. PF as a party doesn’t need any rigging because it’s a people’s party and it has performed beyond expectation. Zambian politicians will never appreciate what the party/president in power is doing. They called Kaunda – FONKO FONKO, Chiluba – KABWALALA, Mwanawasa – Cabbage, Rupia – Nyama Soya, Sata – Ailing Dictactor or Satan, Lungu – Chakolwa or Kabotolo, the question is were/are all these bad and non performers? Zambians are good at complaining/talking, and if talking was any industry we could have developed more than America. What we need is working hard, correct mistakes where deemed desirable, honest and integrity in all that we are doing and looking to God and men who will always fail us.
Zambia Police rubbish. The whole top brass need to be replaced. A police force which arrests people who go to report cases to them, a police force which arrests a citizen who has been shot leaving the perpetrator.
Useless PF police, useless PF and useless Lusambo. This boy Lusambo will also dance to the same music after PF is gone because this is abuse of people’s human rights. VJ is a veteran who knows what goes on in elections. His warning should be heeded and not be used to harass him by wasting his little money. Shame on PF
BUT what about Kambwili. When is police going to summon him over the more dangerous tribal comments he made which could have incited genocide?
Kambwili’s comments were criminal. But VJ merely stated the FACTs, because it is a FACT that previous govts including the PF in 2015 rigged the presidential elections including in CHAWAMA. The records are there at ECZ and the evidence all there for all to see.
